Abstract

Semana Santa (Holy Week), which commemorates the passion, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, has evolved not only as a sacred religious ritual but also as a unique spiritual tourism attraction. This study aims to analyze the cultural and religious roles in the development of local tourism, with a specific case study on the Semana Santa tradition in Larantuka, East Flores. The research method used is qualitative with a literature study approach, by collecting and analyzing data from various relevant literature sources. The research results indicate that Semana Santa functions as a primary tourism attraction through four key factors: (1) Sacred Rituals and Processions (such as the Tuan Ma and Tuan Ana processions) that create profound spiritual experiences; (2) Culture and Tradition, which represent a unique acculturation between Catholic rituals and the local Lamaholot culture; (3) Historical Value as a living heritage that has endured for over five centuries; and (4) Spiritual Experience that attracts pilgrims to pray and seek blessings. The conclusion of this study is that the integration of culture, religion, and tourism within the Semana Santa tradition has become a significant driver of the local economy by promoting the growth of homestays, culinary offerings, and souvenirs

Abstract

Bena Village in Ngada Regency, Flores, East Nusa Tenggara, is one of the traditional settlements that has preserved the authenticity of its traditional houses (sa'o) and the local wisdom values that have been passed down from generation to generation. These values not only reflect the cultural identity of the local community but also have the potential to support the development of sustainable cultural tourism. This study aims to identify and analyze the local wisdom embodied in the construction of traditional houses in Bena Village and to examine its contribution to supporting sustainable cultural tourism development. The study employed a qualitative approach using an ethnographic method. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, and were analyzed descriptively to understand the meanings and practices of local wisdom embedded in the construction of traditional houses (sa'o). The findings reveal that the local wisdom embedded in the construction of traditional houses in Bena Village encompasses ecological aspects through the use of local materials and adaptation to climatic conditions; structural and technical aspects through earthquake-resistant construction systems and the use of traditional joints; socio-cultural aspects through spatial symbolism, mutual cooperation values, and intergenerational transmission of knowledge; and economic aspects through the utilization of traditional houses as attractions for cultural tourism. These values contribute to the preservation of cultural heritage while strengthening the attractiveness of the destination in a sustainable manner. The study implies that the local wisdom embedded in the construction of traditional houses in Bena Village has high relevance to the development of sustainable cultural tourism. The principles embodied therein can serve as a foundation for cultural heritage preservation, the strengthening of local identity, and tourism development oriented toward environmental, social, and economic sustainability.

Abstract

The problem of plastic waste is a serious challenge in tourism development, including in the development of culture-based tourism. The low level of plastic waste recycling at the community level demonstrates the need for an educational approach that is applicable and empowering. The Community Service Program (PKM), conducted by a team of lecturers and students from the Ecotourism study program at Cristo Re Polytechnic, aims to increase ecological awareness and creative skills among members of the Mawarane Cultural Studio, through training in making sofa chairs from used plastic bottles. The methods used included participatory counseling, demonstrations, hands-on practice, and mentoring over three days. The results of the activity showed an increase in participants' understanding of the concepts of the circular economy and waste management, as well as technical skills in producing simple furniture products that are functional and aesthetically valuable. In addition to producing a physical output in the form of a sofa prototype, the program also encouraged a collective commitment to developing environmentally friendly creativity as part of the studio's identity. This activity demonstrates that the integration of cultural preservation, community empowerment, and environmental management can be an innovative model in supporting sustainable, community-based tourism.
